Book Description
An evocative and unforgettable memoir from award-winning journalist Carlos Frías about his journey to Cuba where he retraces his family's history and encounters the realities of Cuba under Fidel Castro's rule. Carlos Frías, an award-winning journalist and the American-born son of Cuban exiles, grew up hearing about his parents' homeland only in parables. Their Cuba, the one they left behind four decades ago, was ethereal. It existed, for him, only in their anecdotes, and in the family that remained in Cuba—merely ghosts on the other end of a telephone. Until Fidel Castro fell ill. Sent to Cuba by his newspaper as the country began closing to foreign journalists in August 2006, Frías begins the secret journey of a lifetime—twelve days in the land of his parents. That experience led to this evocative, spectacular, and unforgettable memoir. Take Me With You is written through the unique eyes of a first-generation Cuban-American seeing the forbidden country of his ancestry for the first time. Frías provides a fresh view of Cuba, devoid of overt political commentary, focusing instead on the gritty, tangible lives of the people living in Castro's Cuba. Frías takes in the island nation of today and attempts to reconstruct what the past was like for his parents, retracing their footsteps, searching for his roots, and discovering his history. The story creates lasting and unexpected ripples within his family on both sides of the Florida Straits—and on the author himself.

"The story of Dan Fadrique Lopez de Mendoza, a man of seafaring adventures and a deist in the mould of the eighteenth-century philosophes, and Dona Blanca Roldan de Solis, a woman of unbounded pride and a Catholic driven by religious fanaticism, neither of which traits prevented her from having had an adulterous affair as a young woman in Lima, Peru, with Don Fadrique."--Back cover.

Book Description
Almanzora, agosto de 1937. El mundo se halla en constante guerra y en su avance ha llegado ante las puertas de esta aldea imaginaria donde sus habitantes sobreviven al margen de la realidad. El párroco de Almanzora ha muerto mientras celebraba la misa del sábado por causas que no se logran esclarecer y el alcalde se ve obligado a hacer todo lo posible para enterrar al difunto. El problema surge cuando no llega ningún otro sacerdote que oficie el entierro y se suceden toda clase de situaciones extraordinarias, insólitas y extravagantes de origen mitológico y sobrenatural. Conjugando lo mejor de tres estilos narrativos del género de la novela, realismo mágico, surrealismo y literatura fantástica, Donde no hubo guerra es una novela antibelicista que se enmarca dentro de una selecta bibliografía de títulos dedicados a tratar la realidad desde la fantasía.
